Additional Comments:
Her maiden name was Clara Ann BROWN.  She was the daughter of Celia Ann BROWN, 
who married Edmund FARBROTHER.  I am not sure if Edmund was her father or not 
but she is listed as his daughter in the census and shown there with his last 
name.  The siblings listed George Henry FARBROTHER and (Mary) Emma FARBROTHER 
(who later married Albert OLIVER) were the children of Edmund FARBROTHER and 
Celia Ann BROWN.  Another sister Celia Elizabeth FARBROTHER died Feb 1881.  
Clara Ann’s first husband was James NORMAN.
